Best Things to do in Windsor

Updated: Jun 25, 2026

The city's only farm, spectacular lookouts, funky bars and cafes, Brisbane's smallest house, a vegan supermarket and organic markets, are some of the top attractions in this historic northside suburb:

Windsor Walk

A walk around Windsor is charming with hilly streets revealing a fascinating history of gorgeous villas, stunning vistas, tragedies, medical firsts and quirks.

Bear Boy Espresso

This chic and charming cafe is perched on the end of Windsor's heritage-listed 1920's shopping strip Colwill Place

Torrisi’s Delights

This charming café and patisserie, tucked away on a corner street, brings a taste of Italy to Windsor

Fiore Boutique

Fiore Boutique is a florist, homewares and gift store blooming with breathtaking bouquets, indoor plants and various other unique gifting goodies

Northey Street Organic Farmers Market

Held in the shaded carpark adjacent to the farm, this is the only pure organic produce market in Brisbane

P'nut Asian Kitchen

The funky Asian fusion restaurant specializes in delectable noodle dishes with handmade sauce

Sunny Side

Sunny Side is a gourmet sandwich shop that takes freshly made sandwiches with classic flavours to the next level

The Green Edge

Brisbane's northside is very fortunate to be the home of The Green Edge, our largest vegan grocery store and cafe

Espresso House Windsor

Venture into the hilly Federation cottage lined streets of Windsor and in the midst of it all you’ll stumble across a cute old colonial shop

Northey St Farm

Zone Fresh Gourmet Markets

Historic Windsor

Windsor is steeped in history with many historic homes and buildings still preserved as a remnant of its past life. From Oakwal House(circa 1864) to the old hospital and Salvation Army HQ Boothville, grand villa Kirkston , the quaint building that was once home to Windsor Shire Council, and even a park named after famous aviator Bert Hinkler who was a regular visitor to Windsor's old aero club.
